In recent days, President Trump’s most ardent supporters have been working hard to remind their social media followers, and just about anyone who will listen, that Special Counsel Robert Mueller is a poor choice to investigate the Trump campaign’s alleged ties to Russia. In fact, it seems like the growing chorus from Newt Gingrich, Judy Woodruff, and others in the Trump sphere of influence believe Mueller will turn the investigation into a witch hunt.

That has to be definitive confirmation of his guilt. Any innocent guy would welcome vindication but the orange fuckstick in chief has gone so far out of his way to impede all investigations that it’s blatant. The special counsel had to be hired because everyone in his administration is so compromised that they might as well carry a hammer and sickle in their god damn briefcase. So what’s Trumpkin’s answer? Fire the one guy involved in all this who isn’t beholden to him. It’s absurd. If he doesn’t fire Mueller then we’re about 45 days from Air Force One making a diplomatic trip to Russia and never coming back.

Sidenote: it’s hilarious how quickly every republican, who were so sure that the basketball hued dipshit in office was innocent, went from singing Mueller’s praises to saying he’s on a witch hunt and can’t be trusted to be impartial. Be more craven Newt, you old deflated nutsack.

It doesn’t even matter if he fires Mueller. Rep Adam Schiff has already said if Trump does that, they’re re-establishing independent counsel and appointing Mueller. The only thing it would accomplish is wasting time and further convincing everyone he’s guilty as hell.

Which, you know, even if he’s exonerated, we’re reaching the point where he’s done so much shady shit to make this go away, it’s going to hang over his presidency no matter what.
